What is the distance it can project over? How dark does the room need to be?

We have used this projector in small and larger rooms and it works good to fair respectivly. The rooms are ususally not very dark.

I've never used the projector over it's maximum distance, but it has worked very well in medium sized conference or meeting rooms. It is bright enough that the room need not be totally darkened. Low lighting in the room still allows for a clear picture on the screen.

This is a very bright projector. I used it in a brightly lit African classroom where sunshine is often an issue. This one holds its own. The image is larger than most projectors, so I've never had it more than 20 feet from the projector, even in a large sanctuary.

It depends on your requirements. It can project to the distance of a mile... but it will be very, very dark. Google "projector calculator", and find the projector you are interested in; you'll get needed info.

As long as you have an hd projector and enough space in the room it is great. Make sure you can control the amount of light in the room.

Not that great in low light. You will need to light the room a little, try a red light or something to have an excuse for lighting :)

It depends on how bright and saturated you want/need the effect to be. I threw it on a 20 x 12 foot wall from a distance of maybe 10 feet away. It was brilliant and sharp and fairly all encompassing (It was night time - with some ambient light around) Double that distance and the effect and coverage suffers greatly.

Well it depends on the ambient light of the room, obviously. But overall I've been real impressed with the projector. Let's just say that if I turn off all the lights in my living room at night I can get a pretty clear image that is about 100'' from corner to corner. In most lighting conditions a clear 40-50'' image is typical. Of course it doesn't compare to a real projector, but it works much better than I expected.

I have the projector suspended from the ceiling got a large classroom (30'x20'). It is 12' from the screen and projects a picture approx. 8' wide. There are lights on in the room and this projector's picture is clearly visible from all areas of the room.

That sounds about right. Mine is 16' away for a 100" diagonal screen. If you need something shorter I'd strongly suggest a short throw projector.

I'm not sure, so I just walked outside and measured the approximate distance from where the projector was on Saturday. I would say about 11 - 12 feet. You could probably pull back the projector more but you would need a really big screen and you may loose some of the crisp image quality...maybe I'll make a bigger screen and test it out...

No projector is going to work in that kind of setting. YOu really need a darkened room. Even in a room with natural light coming in multiple windows I had to wait for the sun to set to see the images. It's not a function of this projector. It's a function of projection in general.

When it comes to light in the room this projector is just 'ok'. The blinds/curtains do have to be shut in order to enjoy the movie. But if the room is dark and no light, then the project is really nice. We use the projector at night over the weekends and we love it. We have it hung on the ceiling 16ft away from screen, screen size around 120". This is my first projector.

I use it my living room, during daytime with blinds closed it works great! There is no direct daylight on the screen. In your case If there is going to be plenty of day light a projector with higher lumens than this one might be better but still it depends on how much daylight exposure you are talking about.

Very feasible, the image shows up pretty clearly from behind, so I think you would be able to do it with a strong enough projector. Ours is a little under 1500 lumens to give you an idea.

That's going to depend on how dark the subject is. It works great at arms length. 12 feet as the other commenter said? That would be pushing it I think. Maybe as a minor fill light, but not as a primary light.

No - I don't believe it would be bright enough. This requires the room to be very dark.

This will depend on several factors, projector distance from Screen, will your seats/viewers block any of the projection, hight of ceiling - I have projected from 60 inches to 200 inches in some tests. I am now constructing a home theater area using a wall painted white at ~110" wide and ~62" tall (16x9 ratio or 126" diag). Check the specs but I believe this projector can go over 20 feet wide (try this on the side of you house). This projector is both bright and can project larger than I oringinally imagined. Good luck with what ever you end up with.

I have my unit 15 feet away and gives me a 12 foot screen, with a very good picture. This unit is not very forgiving on where you can put, it has to be in the center and just in the right place. I replaced my old bulb projector with this one and had make a lot of changes to my room to make it work right but, now that I have I'm happy with it.

I think it would work well if you have a place to put it a straight shot to the screen. I have it 22 feet from the screen and it projects a 210" projection. I think it doesn't do too well with a lot of lighting. You can always try it and return it to Amazon if you're not satisfied. I'm very satisfied with it myself.
